Tis the season

Am I the only one who is completely turned off by the whole "prices too low to show" routine? A post on this forum kinda set me off about it, after seeing a million "black friday deals" with prices JUST TOO LOW TO SHOW ME!!!!!

Your a business... You ask a price, WE decide how low it is, and we either buy it, or we don't. Stop treating us like were 5 years old.

That is all....

I agree. Also when they put 30% off a particular item but then don't put the original price. So you don't know if it's 30% off $19.99 or $1999.99.

If you don't tell me the price, or what the original was I assume you're being shady

I need a price AND a pic, don't show me a picture and I won't even bother. Radio ads are hell.

But really, I see "Black Friday Sale" and I pass right by.

You could not get me out in that mess for any amount of money.
Well, there is an amount but it is very high 6 figures.

I hate it when you have to put the item in your shopping cart to see the price.

I hate when you have to pass a piece of legislation to see what's in it too.

One year I was going to go camping and caving for the weekend as I always do this weekend and we left the house at 4am Friday. As we were nearing Paoli I realized I had forgotten socks. "No problem," I thought, "I'll just pull into the Paoli W-Mart real quick." Oh boy was that a mistake. The place was wall to wall bodies and I had to climb over the stacks of crap in the main aisles because everyone was just standing around yakking. *shudder* that was my first and only experience with the phenomenon and I will never again do that. I'd either turn around and drive the half hour back home or go sockless before experiencing that again.
